BIGSOUND 2012: Young Men Dead

Member/role:
Dean Foran – drummer.

Hometown:
Brisbane.

Short description of your band and your music:
We are four tall friends that share a love of dance music, synthesizers, tribal drums and epic harmonies. The rest of the Young Men Dead story wrote itself.

What are you hoping to achieve from showcasing at BIGSOUND?
BIGSOUND is an exciting opportunity for us to reach new audiences and hopefully have our music burn the ears off people we respect within the industry.

Why should people come and see you from amongst the myriad bands at BIGSOUND?
We've just come off the back of our first interstate shows and we are keen as mustard to show off to everyone. We'll be releasing a single any day now and our EP will not be far behind. It's like we've created some sort of rabid sound animal and it won't stay caged for much longer. Come along, poke a stick between the bars and experience YMD for yourself.
